nSu Xing had only taken a few steps when he stopped.

nAt the entrance of Sunset Peak, a young disciple was squatting.

nBefore Su Xing could step forward to take a look, the disciple had already made a move that exceeded his expectations.

nA beam of red light swept towards the horizon, and a signal flare shaped like the Mysterious Sky Sword Sect was imprinted on the horizon.

nA cloud piercing arrow, an army of thousands of horses came to meet.

nSince when had the Blackheaven Sword Sect start to play the axe gang?

nA dozen breaths later.

nA few streaks of rainbow light flew over from afar.

nIt was the group of high-ranking officials led by Zhuang Changhe.

n“Greetings, Sect Master, greetings, Martial Uncles.” Su Xing scratched his head and asked in puzzlement, “I wonder what happened to Sect Master and the Peak Masters coming here?”

nZhuang Changhe pointed at the barrier in front of the Sunset Peak.

nSu Xing was stunned.

nHe had forgotten that he had already activated the array formation on the sunset peak so that Shen Yaoling would not be disturbed during the refinement process.

nIt was likely that Zhuang Changhe and the others had come here before. Due to the obstruction of the array formation, they had returned empty-handed.

nWith that thought, the array formation immediately disappeared.

nZhuang Changhe and the few elders were apprehensive

nThey flew down the Sunset Peak.

n“Martial nephew Su Xing, where is that senior?”

nSince when was there an additional senior? Su Xing was completely confused.

n“I wonder which senior is the Sect Master talking about, is it the beautiful master?”

n“No, no, no, we want to ask about that expert senior who had Ascended to the realm.”

nIn the Mysterious Sky Sword Sect, such strong people were respected.

nFor the strong, it was very impolite to call them by their names. Zhuang Changhe and the others could only vaguely mention some information.

n“Martial nephew Su should know that someone barged into the mountain gate and was forced back by the Mysterious Sky Sword Sect’s expert, right?”

n“I know!”

n“Is that expert senior still on the Sunset Peak?”

nAfter beating around the bush for a long time, it seemed that they were talking about Junior Sister Shen Yaoling!

n“Junior Sister, I’m sorry,” Su Xing said seriously.

n“Oh! Junior Sister is consolidating her cultivation in the room. I don’t know what happened just now, but she chased me out of the room out of nowhere.”

nZhuang Changhe and the elders looked at each other.

n“…”

nJunior nephew Su was really… sigh, forget it, forget it!

nYou even dared to provoke an expert of the Ascension Realm rank. You have to be admirable.

nHowever, it was normal when he thought about it. Su Xing’s cultivation was still in the third layer of the Obstruction Realm. How could he see through such an expert.

nZhuang Changhe shook his head.

n“Junior martial nephew Su Xing, did that senior say anything? Or do you know why she came to our Blackheaven Sword Sect?”

n“Junior martial sister naturally came to the Blackheaven Sword Sect to cultivate.”

nSu Xing thought for a few seconds. “She said she wanted to be quiet, so she pushed me out.”

n“Sect Master, since senior doesn’t like to be disturbed, let’s come another day.”

n“I think senior must be a person who cultivates in seclusion. It’s normal for him not to like the bustle. Why don’t we go back first? If there’s any situation, I’ll have to trouble martial nephew Su Xing to keep an eye on it.”

n“That’s possible!”

nZhuang Changhe nodded and turned his gaze to Su Xing who was still in a daze.

n“Elders, you can go back first. I have a few words to discuss with Martial Nephew Su Xing.”

n“Oh right, when you leave, remove the disciples under the Sunset Peak as well, so as not to offend senior.”

n“We will comply with the Sect Leader’s decree!”

nThe elders who came with Zhuang Changhe all left in response.

nSu Xing’s gaze turned and met a pair of eyes filled with curiosity.

n“Martial nephew Su Xing, there are only the two of us here. If there’s anything that’s inconvenient to say, you can say it now!”

nEh?

n“Hehe! How did your Junior Martial Sister reach the realm of Ascension? Don’t tell me you don’t know this?”

nZhuang Changhe was initially stunned by the scene in front of the mountain gate. He had also thought that Shen Yaoling was an ascendant mighty figure hidden in the Mysterious Sky Sword Sect. After he calmed down, he tried to unearth some clues.

nThis was because before Shen Yaoling ascended to the Sunset Peak, he had brought her to the Heavenly Stele to be tested. At that time, she was indeed at the Foundation Establishment Realm. This was without a doubt.

nThe origin of the Heavenly Stele Test was a long time ago.

nSpeaking of which, the Mysterious Heavenly Sword Sect had a long history. It could be traced back to the ancient times.

nAt that time, the cultivation environment was not as thin as it was now.

nIn the ancient times, experts gathered in the Lingtian continent. It was an era where tribulations were as numerous as dogs, and ascensions were everywhere.

nEvery year, there was even a matter of cultivation breaking through to the Human Immortal Realm, followed by the Ascendance Realm.

nThe Heavenly Stele Test of the Mysterious Heavenly Sword Sect was also at that time. It was a treasure jointly refined by more than ten ascendant powerhouses. It was difficult for anyone below the Human Immortal Realm to fake it in front of the stele.

nTherefore, the result of Shen Yaoling’s test also made Zhuang Changhe feel puzzled.

nFurthermore, during the battle with the black-clothed old man and his group, Shen Yaoling did not use her attack methods. Instead, she used some strange cultivation method to absorb their attacks. This was very suspicious.

nAfter dealing with this matter, Zhuang Changhe hurriedly went to the grand supreme elder to discuss it.

nHe only received ten words.

n“She has the form, but not the spirit.”

nShe had the power of an ascendant, but she did not have the foundation and spiritual sense of an ascendant.

nFrom this, Zhuang Changhe made a bold guess.

nIn fact, Shen Yaoling’s true strength had not reached the Ascendant Realm.

nThat was why she asked this question.

nHaha!

nSu Xing was also surprised by this exciting thrust.

nHe did not want to hide it at first, but Zhuang Changhe and the others kept calling him a senior, asking him to say no or not to say no.

nBut he also did not expect that the Mysterious Sky Sword Sect, which looked extremely ordinary, actually had such a foundation.

nHis view of his sect changed again.

n“Sect Master, I’ve said it long ago. It’s just that you don’t believe me.”

nSu Xing spread his hands helplessly.

n“Martial nephew Su Xing, now you can tell me why Shen Yaoling has the strength of the Ascension Realm.”

n“Master once left me some medicinal pills. Among them, there are a few medicinal pills that can increase cultivation base dramatically.”

nWhat?

nIt was actually medicinal pills!

nIf a medicinal pill could raise a cultivator from the Foundation Establishment Stage to the ascended stage, what kind of medicinal pill would have such heaven-defying effects! !

nWas there really such a medicinal pill in the world? Zhuang Changhe expressed his doubt.

nIt seemed that this Sunset Peak was hiding a huge secret!

nHowever, from the situation where the Great Qin Empire was pressing down on the border, it seemed that Su Xing and the others were on the sect’s side.

nThis might be a good thing for the Mysterious Heavenly Sword Sect!

nEveryone had their own secrets, so as long as they did not endanger the sect’s safety, they could just let them be.

nAt that moment, Zhuang Changhe suddenly felt that the Sunset Peak was shrouded in a layer of mystery.

nEven Su Xing, who was dressed in plain clothes, became difficult to recognize in his eyes.

nWhen he wore the robes of the Mysterious Heavenly Sword Sect, he looked like an extremely beautiful cultivator.

nHowever, when was wearing a simple cloth robe, he gave off a mysterious aura.

nZhuang Changhe retracted his gaze.

n“Alright! Since martial nephew doesn’t want to reveal it, then I can’t force you.”

n“In view of the crisis in the sect, the contribution of the Sunset Peak is indispensable. I’ll get someone to send the reward over later. If martial nephew needs anything, feel free to ask.”

n“Then I will thank the Sect Leader on behalf of my Junior Sisters!”
